Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 1 tbsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 whole onions, chopped and sliced
  • 2 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp freshly crushed black pepper
  • 1.2 kg chicken thighs, bone in, skin on
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 cup plain, unflavored yogurt
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp ground coriander
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp turbinado sugar
  • 1½ tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp finely grated garlic
  • ¼ cup olive oil
Combine the yogurt, chili powder, smoked paprika, coriander, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, sugar, cornstarch, grated garlic, chopped and sliced onion, oil, salt and black pepper.
The yogurt base
Add the chicken thighs and mix by hand. Marinate 1 hour to overnight in the fridge, taken out an hour before cooking, or just 15 minutes if rushed.
Transfer to a baking dish and bake in a preheated 375F oven 50 minutes to an hour.
  • ½ cup water
Halfway through spoon the gravy over the top; add about half a cup of water if it looks dry.
Bake until the thighs reach 175F internal, about 50 minutes here, or until tender to a fork.
Checking doneness
Sprinkle with dried parsley and chopped fresh rosemary.
